Deliberation suggests the people involved haven't thought about it and I think that is not a fair assesment. Really, if anyone has objections, he/she should bring them up. In absense of those it makes sense to trust the experts, don't you think?
experts are not experts on anything like marketing, for example There should be a formal way to make sure a decision is made on important subjects in a known way by known people. A "technical staff" with experts from various domain, including marketing and project, in charge of saying the final "yes" or "no". A way not to do again some odd decision we suffered from in the past witout even knowing who decided to do so. This staff could include the board (but not only) and hold an IRC meeting at some important period of the distribution lifetime. Just before RC and feature freeze could be a good moment. Asking some questions like: * systemd and inits at still available, what one do we make default for the Gold master? * Gnome 4 is nearly ready, and us are we ready? you see the point? Like we work now, nobody is responsible (who choosed between kde3 and kde4 as default?) - for the good or the bad jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://pizzanetti.fr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
